My donor area still looks very bad and doesn't look like hair is growing properly. I have the feeling it's over harvested. The advised that I would have shock hair loss but this doesn't look like shock loss.

Answer: Over harvested donor Unfortunatelly it is very bad job. Sometimes there may be such a early phase alopecic, bald spots in donor areas after FUE surgery, but most are transient. İt may happen because of over harvesting or transient post traumatic shedding /shock loss. Any way it heals and hair regrow in 4-5 months of hair restoration surgery .I hope you will get your donor area back .

Answer: PO donor area after 6 weeks You mentioned 5,000 hairs. Is that correct? or did you meant 5,000 grafts? And there is a big difference between hairs or grafts. It looks like to me 5,000 grafts. It appears over harvested at 6 weeks PO and I can think about telogen effluvium of the donor area too. So, I will suggest you to do NOTHING, I won't recommend SMP at this PO time too. I will recommend you to let the donor area to heal, regrow the existing hair then further evaluation in the following months (3 and 6 and more months PO). Good luck.
